Grandma Xianglian, who lived next door, heard that Jing Hao was coming, and brought more than a dozen duck eggs early in the morning, saying that she would replenish Jing Hao's body.

"Jing Hao is handsome, you haven't seen this, like your poor mother-in-law. Poor thing, look at how thin you have become, Jing Hao is three years older than Xue Jiao, and she looks thinner than Xue Jiao. Grandma Xianglian took Jinghao's hand and looked at Li Shi and said.

Mrs. Chen was lifting the curtain to go to the thatched house to relieve her hands, when she heard Grandma Xianglian's voice and pursed her lips.

After breakfast, Xue Ru remembered the silver that Xue Jiao took out last night, and thought that she was playing with catching crabs and picking wild chrysanthemums, but she didn't expect to make a sum of money, so Xue Jiao also went with Qi Ping when she went out, and Jing Hao also followed.

The crops in the field were almost harvested, and Xue Jiao and several people carried their pockets to pick up the missing soybeans.

When she sat down to rest, Xue Jiao found that the soil on both sides of the Xiaohuai River was red mud, and suddenly thought that in her previous life, her grandmother's salted duck eggs were this kind of mud, and the pickled duck eggs were golden and oily, and they were very mellow. I haven't eaten salted duck eggs since I came here, and I haven't seen anyone pickle them, so it may be that the salt here is more expensive.

It just so happened that Grandma Xianglian sent more than a dozen duck eggs, so why not try it.

Xue Jiao told Xue Ru and Jing about this idea, and only said that she read it in her father's book. Although Xue Jiao and Xue Ru can't go to a private school to study, after all, they have a talented father, and they can still read and write.

Xue Ru and Jing Hao were very interested, and dug up the red mud together, planning to try the salted duck eggs that Xue Jiao said.

turned around the private school, passed by the door of Master Qin, and found Gu Siyuan and Huang Sanlang standing at the door. The door opened, and this time it was not Jia Dashan who came out, but Master Qin, who saw Master Qin impatiently chasing these two.

Suddenly, Master Qin turned his head and saw Xue Jiao, and when he swept his gaze to Jing Hao's face, he changed slightly, and said: "I look very much like an old man with this girl, dare to ask which girl it is." ”

Jing looked at Xue Jiao, and Xue Jiao replied on her behalf: "This is my aunt's Jing Hao cousin, surnamed Wang." ”

"The second girl of Chen Xiucai's family is quite smart." Master Qin opened his mouth lightly.

"Thank you Master Qin for the compliment." Xue Jiao replied generously, and suddenly glanced at Gu Huang and the two sons, and smiled narrowly and said: "The two sons have eaten the closed door again, you are complaining in your hearts that Master Qin is too crazy, maybe Master Qin is complaining that you can't laugh." ”

Master Qin's brows relaxed, thinking that this little girl was a little interesting, and looked at Jing Hao again, thinking that there were really people in the world who looked so similar, really like what she looked like when she was young.

When Gu Siyuan and Huang Sanlang heard Master Qin say that Jing was like an old man, they couldn't help but stare at Jing a few times. They have all heard that Master Qin was the champion of high school in the year of his weak crown, and he was favored by the eldest princess that year, but for various reasons, he did not have a princess after all, and the princess went to the Qiang country to make peace.

Huang Sanlang's eyes were facing Jing Hao, and Jing Hao blushed and lowered his head negligently. Jing Hao has a noble and simple demeanor, like a spring breeze, although there are only mountains and wilderness around, but she is like a snow lotus, Huang Sanlang's heart unconsciously melted with Jing Hao's bow. Master Qin said that Jing is like an old man, but not the eldest princess, he has seen the portrait of the eldest princess when she was young in the bedroom of the imperial grandmother, whether it is eyebrows or posture, it is different from Jing Hao.

"You little girl can talk." Master Qin suddenly raised his head and laughed.

"I heard that Master Qin is very particular about food, and he doesn't get tired of eating, and Xuejiao will also have a few good dishes, so it's better to ask Master Qin to appreciate his face and taste it later." Xue Jiao said boldly.

"Good, good. Definitely, definitely. Master Qin smiled and closed the door.

Chen Xuejiao smiled proudly, it seems that this lonely old man has agreed.

Suddenly, Chen Xiucai and Chen Qilin came out of the private school, and next to them were Xianglian and Xuewa and said something about it.

"What happened?" Xue Jiao grabbed Xue Wa's hand and asked.

"Sister Jinghao's matter", Xuewa gasped and said: "The Wang family is here, Steward Sun is also here, and what kind of matchmaker is there, who said in the upper room that she wants to give Sister Jinghao to the Sun family." My aunt and my mother asked me to come to the private school to find my uncle home. ”

Xue Jiao and Xue Ru rushed home after listening to Jing Hao, and said to Jing Hao as they ran: "Cousin Jing Hao, you can't agree no matter what, don't be afraid, be tough." ”

As soon as Jing Hao heard that the matchmaker was coming, her face turned red with anger, and she had to nod after listening to Xue Jiao's words.

Gu Siyuan and Huang Sanlang also followed.

Walking into the courtyard, Li responded with a sad face. Hearing the proud voice of the Zhao family in the house: "There is no such good thing anymore, aunt, I won't tell you, this family affair was originally set for Xue Jiao, who would have thought that Xue Jiao's child was unblessed, and the eight characters did not match the child of the Sun family and was not settled." ”

"What a shame." Xue Jiao scolded secretly, such a good person as Li was angry when she heard it, could her daughter be crooked?

Xue coquettishly ran into the upper room, and said into Zhao's eyes: "What the eldest aunt said, why didn't I know about this, maybe the eldest aunt remembered wrongly, I heard yesterday that I promised Sister Xue Miao to the Sun family." ”

"You little slut, dare to say me, it's obvious that you want to marry that stupid big man." Xue Miao screamed to grab Xue Jiao, but was held down by Xue Yao.

Steward Sun frowned displeased when he heard Xue Miao say that his master was a fool.

Zhao's face changed and he said: "What is not allowed, you are a little girl's family and don't know how to avoid it, but when you talk about it, which family's rules are this." ”

"Her second aunt, as my sister-in-law, I have never bothered with you all these years, you usually have a headache and brain fever, which time should your work not be borne by me, Qi Lin is two months older than Qi An, you don't have enough milk, eat my milk for a year. Don't say this, I don't want to admit your affection, don't say that you are the child's own aunt, even a Zhuang person can't treat my family Xuejiao like this. Lee toughened up.

Chen Qilin looked at Li Shi with a dodgy gaze.

"Look, sister-in-law, this isn't a rush, I'm just saying, how big it is, you can give the same reason to the teaching gentleman." Zhao covered his chest with a handkerchief and said delicately.

"Quiet, you're here, hurry up." When Mrs. Wang saw Jing Hao, her eyes lit up and she beckoned to her.

Stand still.

Mrs. Wang only thought she was shy, and said happily: "It's quiet, this is a great happy event for our Wang family." Your second uncle's family has found you a good family, it is the Sun family of Xuzhou Mansion, which is a first-class wealth. This is thanks to your Cousin Xueyao, if it weren't for her, how would we farmers know any noble family. ”

Jing listened well, was ashamed and angry, and lowered his head.

"Yo, the girl is shy, it's no wonder, my wife has kept so many matchmakers, this shy girl has seen a lot. If you want to say that this Sun family, who doesn't know the wealth of the sky, house after house, just the back garden is about the same size as your village, not to mention the master, only that their servants are several times stronger than the average Yin family. The matchmaker sitting next to Mrs. Wang got up with a smile, took a step forward and took a good hand as she spoke, and carefully observed: "The girl of the Wang family, looking really handsome, I don't know that I think I was from an official family." Book a name today, pay a gift tomorrow, and carry it into the door on the eighth auspicious day of the zodiac in the first month of the next month, you have to wait for three years and Lu, so first go through the door to be a young grandmother, and wait for the Hu to be in the round house. ”

Jing Hao was so frightened that she retracted her hand and looked at Xue Jiao and Li with tears in her eyes.

This is not the time for Xue Jiao to speak.

"Don't be afraid, there's still my uncle here." Xue Jiao opened her mouth, she wanted to see Wang Baozhu's attitude, Wang Baozhu was not good to her aunt, and she wouldn't even care about her own daughter.

"Jinghao, don't thank you second aunt, what kind of family is the Wang family, an old farmer for seven or eight generations, and being able to marry this family with the Sun family can be regarded as an ancestral virtue." Wang Baozhu looked obscene, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he revealed a row of yellow teeth.

The matchmaker and Steward Sun flew away, and Wang Baozhu could give birth to such a flower-like girl.

"I don't want to marry into the Sun family." Wang Baozhu's words made Jing Hao's heart so cold that her body trembled, and she mustered up the courage to say this, in the end, it was her daughter's family, and she was anxious to cry when it came to getting married.

"It's not up to you to marry or not, marriage has always been the order of your parents, and the words of the matchmaker, how can you speak reasonably. Thinking that you have no mother, marrying early is also planned for you, not to mention that the Sun family is still such a rich family, even if your mother is alive, she will not object. Mrs. Wang's face was blank and she reprimanded.

"Jing Hao is still young, it's not appropriate to say kiss now, my sister died less than three months, Jing Hao is now in the heat of filial piety, it's not appropriate to discuss kissing now, it's better to wait for her to be a few years older." Chen Xiucai spoke.

"Boss, what does this matter have to do with you, Xue Jiao was reluctant to marry at the beginning, you were a father and stopped it, now Jing Hao is the girl of the Wang family, how can you be an uncle who is qualified to ask." Old Lady Chen pursed her lips.

"Now that the eldest sister is gone, only Jinghao is a single seedling left, and I, as an uncle, must do my best to maintain Jinghao. Although the marriage must obey the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, but also consider the wishes of the children. Chen Zimin didn't give an inch.

"Her mother is dead, you are also dead as her father, my treasure pillar is still there, where is your turn to speak to an uncle." The old lady of the Wang family raised her voice.

"I'll take Jing Hao back today, and I still have half a month to embroider your wedding dress and wait for you to get married, and don't think about anything else." Wang Baozhu said leisurely.

"Quietly, my aunt only asks you one word, are you willing to marry." Lee spoke.

"I can't marry even if I die." Jing Hao cried.

"The black-hearted nest, how old is Jinghao, so he instigated her." Mrs. Chen gritted her teeth and scolded, "Just like her mother, Wenxiu heard that she was going to marry Baozhu before, and she was also going to die or live like this." ”

"Don't mention your good daughter, who died of my family's treasure pillar. Quietly, let me tell you, you are young and ignorant, and it is not easy to find you a rich and noble family, and now you have heard that people have instigated you to miss this family business, and you will not be able to find such a lantern in the future. Mrs. Wang glanced at Jing Hao.

Xue Jiao watched Mrs. Wang sing and harmonize like a big play, thinking that if these two old ladies scolded each other, I don't know what kind of lively scene it would be.

"If you marry, you will marry, and if you don't marry, you will marry. I have already agreed with the Sun family, how can I break the contract. Wang Baozhu looked like a scoundrel, touching a hundred taels of silver in his arms, it was the first time he had seen so much silver when he grew so big.
